Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen Restaurant Review

: Wrought-iron balustrades and an open courtyard create a Louisiana ambience in which to enjoy traditional New Orleans fare and live jazz. Located along Downtown Disney’s main thoroughfare, Ralph Brennan’s has three distinct dining areas: the quick-service Jazz Kitchen Express, the table-service Flambeaux Room and the fine dining club upstairs. In the latter, starters include the Bourbon Street sampler, which turns out to be some good popcorn calamari and blackened chicken dumplings. Classic dishes such as gumbo abound, as do jambalayas. Steaks, fresh fish and chicken are also prepared with a touch of New Orleans spices and herbs. If you're looking for a sweet treat during your Disney day, stop in for the double-chocolate bread pudding. Park guests, tourists and locals alike descend upon the venue every Sunday for the N'Awlins Brunch fest, which features plated Cajun food and live jazz. On the run? Stop by the Jazz Kitchen Express and grab some coffee and beignets to go.
